All injury risk team (1 Viewer)

[Snorkelson]

Guys coming off injuries or perceived as injury risks-

QB- Luck gets the nod here, as there is trepidation over missed time. He could miss 3 games and still be a top 10 qb. Carson palmer gets honorable mention.

RB- Hyde could be great as many backs have been in the shannahan/kubiak zone scheme, but he has the label.

RB Rawls has the tag of injury prone but seems to have earned a share of the load. Maybe this is rbbc, or maybe one runs away with it or gets the lions share by default. 

WR Keenan Allen is built for this thread. I'll look for wr1 numbers if he can put in a full slate of games.

WR Watkins has a lot of hype to live up to, but LA fans will probably be happy if he simply stays healthy.  

WR Kevin White could have all the targets he wants this year, but will he trust his legs?

FLEX Abdullah can't get by this with an honorable mention, so he gets the flex spot. As hard a worker as you'll find, he may ask his body to do too much. 

TE Gronk. Who did you expect? Honorable mention ebron? 

By popular demand, Jordan reed. 

Who are your injury prone heroes?

The Ravens?

The Ravens?

Ravens tes are like spinal tap drummers

I believe Ryan Mathews has earned a spot here. If not on the bench, at least alumni or something.

He can be the RB Coach once Fred Taylor is promoted to OC.

Special Guest: TE J. Reed

This is a common misnomer among many in the fantasy football community. Freddy Taylor had injuries, but played almost the entire season in 9 of his first 11 seasons. You just don't see that type of long term durability much these days.

LBell is a big risk IMO .... no pre-season action, holding out, not playing a lot then goes straight into regular season games .... history of injuries a bit ... wouldn't surprise me at all

Yes I get that, but what other name could I stick there for the joke that would resonate properly with the majority of readers?  He has a reputation, deserved or not. 

I thought about saying CJ Spiller, but he's still playing, so he can't coach.

Good list to the bolded. How can you not list Reed?

Added reed to the op. Can't add Mathews until he signs with someone.

With a heavy heart: Jamaal Charles.  Dude is a legend.  I would forfeit my fantasy season (and donate my usual K to Vegas, of course) to see him rip the league apart again. 

Love that guy.

JC is one step past injury prone, just plain broke. If he can play a part time role and he wants to continue playing then I'll be happy to see him out there, but the greats fall off fast. Forte and JC are the latest greatest, I don't see a Curtis Martin resurgence. AP, Gore, Lynch owners could be in for a rude awakening.
